THIS IS SOUTHERN MISSIONARY COLLEGE
PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES
The educational philosophy of Southern Missionary College is
best defined by the words Intellect, Character, and Health. The har-
monious development of these characteristics in each student is the edu-
cational goal of the College.
SMC recognizes that intellectual competence is not alien to nor
incompatible with a sincere Christian faith. On the contrary, the
mental powers must be awakened if the Christian is to perceive the
true nature of man and his relationship to God the Creator and to
his fellow men. The development of the intellect means more than
the pursual of scientific data or the acquisition of historical facts.
"Every human being, created in the image of God is endowed with
a power akin to that of the Creator, individuality, power to think
and to do, . . It is the work of true education to develop this power:
to train the youth to be thinkers, and not mere reflectors of other
men's thought. . . Let them contemplate the great facts of duty and
destiny, and the mind will expand and strengthen. Instead of edu-
cated weaklings, institutions of learning may send forth men strong
to think and to act, men who are masters and not slaves of circum-
stances, men who possess breadth of mind, clearness of thought, and
the courage of their convictions." E. G. White
Education at SMC is also concerned with the development of
character as a code of moral and spiritual values in terms of which
things or events may be judged as good or bad — right or wrong.
Christian character reveals principles and standards by which man
may recognize the imperative nature of duty to God and man. It
demonstrates great-mindedness as the basis of tolerance; gentleness
and humility as the antidote to pride and arrogance; dependability as the
power to make one's talents trusted; and motivation which gives form
and intensity to effort.
The highest development of intellect and character is possible
only if the body is physically fit. The mind cannot be disembodied
and is therefore influenced greatly by the physical condition of the
body. The development of intellect, character, and health must be
considered as inseparable goals when providing for the student's total
growth experience.
The Bible is accepted as the perfect standard of truth. The great-
ness of education must not be measured with the trappings of life,
which are the product of scientific and technical achievement. These
may well become the false symbols of civilization and the pagan idols
of our age. Education is intended to preserve, transmit, and advance
knowledge, but SMC also undertakes to develop competent Christian
men and women with high moral principles who will readily identify
themselves with a redemptive approach to the world's needs.
1
THIS IS SMC
In harmony with this general statement of philosophy, the ob-
jectives of the College are:
► Spiritual— To acquaint the student with rays of truth emanat-
ing from the Sun of Righteousness, which will encourage the
development of inner spiritual resources as a basis for the
solution of his personal problems; to foster a sense of loyalty
and devotion to God and nation; and to prepare responsible
Christian citizens for participation in the program of the
Seventh-day Adventist Church.
► Intellectual — To provide selected knowledge of classified facts
and relationships which will help the student to sharpen his
perceptions, to cultivate his powers of analysis, to develop the
ability to use the scientific method of inquiry, to learn the
habit of holding a valuable point of view; and to develop
great-mindedness as opposed to dogmatism, intellectual smug-
ness, and intolerance.
^ Ethical — To inculcate concepts of Christian ethics and mo-
rality and to inspire tolerance of the rights and opinions of
others.
^ Social — To encourage the development of a well-balanced
personality through participation in group activities, and to
instill an appreciation of Christian graces and principles gov-
erning behavior.
y Aesthetic — To inspire an appreciation for that which is ele-
vating and beautiful as revealed through God's handiwork and
the best in the fine arts, and to nurture the creative talent of
the student.
y Civic — To stimulate intelligent observation of world affairs,
and to prepare responsible citizens for participation and lead-
ership in a free society.
► Health — To develop attitudes and encourage practices which
foster mental health and physical fitness.
^ Vocational — To provide opportunity for work experience and
vocational training as an integral part of the total educational
experience in order to teach the student that labor is God-
given, dignified and an aid to character development as well
as a means of financial support.
"Our todays are the blocks with which we build our future. If
these are defective, the whole structure of our life will correspond.
Your future will be exactly what you put into your todays." E. G. White

HISTORY
In 1892 the educational venture that developed into Southern
Missionary College had its beginning in the Seventh-day Adventist
Church in the small village of Graysville, Tennessee. The school
became known as Graysville Academy. In 1896 the name was
changed to Southern Industrial School and five years later to Southern
Training School.
In 1916, because of limited acreage available for further expan-
sion of plant facilities, the school was moved to the Thatcher farm
in Hamilton County, Tennessee. The name "Collegedale" was given
to the anticipated community. At its new location the school opened
as Southern Junior College and continued as such until 1944 when
it achieved senior college status and the name was changed to South-
ern Missionary College. Through the ensuing years the College has
become known to its alumni and friends as SMC.
SETTING
SMC is unique in its location. The main campus is nestled in
the pleasing Collegedale valley, surrounded by some seven hundred
acres of school property. The quietness and beauty of its peaceful
surroundings is in keeping with the educational philosophy of its
governing organization.
The community and campus post office address is Collegedale
which is located eighteen miles east of Chattanooga and three miles
from Ooltejvah off Interstate Highway 75 (formerly U. S. 11 and 64).
The Southern Railway line passes through the north side of the campus.
A bus service operated by the Cherokee Lines serves the college campus.
The Orlando campus situated in Florida's "City Beautiful" at the
Florida Sanitarium and Hospital provides additional clinical facilities
for the baccalaureate program of the Division of Nursing. The Madison
campus at Madison, Tennessee, offers many of the clinical facilities used
in the Associate in Science program in nursing and the Medical Record
Technology program.
CHURCH AFFILIATION
SMC is a coeducational Christian liberal arts college supported
by the members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church residing in the
states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Caro-
lina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. These states comprise the South-
ern Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. The members of
the controlling Board of Trustees are elected quadrennially by the
constituency of the Southern Union Conference.
ACCREDITATION AND MEMBERSHIPS
SMC is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and
Schools and is approved by the Tennessee State Board of Education
THIS IS SMC
for the preparation of secondary and elementary teachers.
The curriculum of the Division of Nursing, including Public
Health Nursing, is accredited by the National League of Nursing
as surveyed by the Collegiate Board of Review. It is an agency
member of the Department of Baccalaureate and Higher Degree Pro-
grams of the Division of Nursing Education of the National League for
Nursing. It is also accredited by the Tennessee Board of Nursing.
and recognized by the Florida State Board of Nursing.
The College is a member of the Association of Seventh-day Ad-
ventist Colleges and Secondary Schools, the Association of American
Colleges, the American Council on Education, the Tennessee College
Association, and the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Edu-
cation, the National Council of Accreditation for Teacher Education,
and the National Association for Schools of Music.
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
The academic program consists of twenty-one departments offering
twenty -six majors and twenty-six minors in which students may
qualify for the baccalaureate degree. Students may pursue programs
of study leading to the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science and Bach-
elor of Music degrees. Various pre-professional and terminal curricula
are available to students wishing to qualify for admission^ to profes-
sional schools and to those wishing to take a two-year terminal pro-
gram of a technical or vocational nature.
THE FACULTY
The faculty determines the quality of the academic program. A
commitment to learning enables SMC teachers to keep abreast of new
knowledge in their respective fields, and through research discover the
pleasure of exploring those areas of knowledge yet unknown.
The aim of the College is to achieve a closeness of teacher and
student which will encourage the student to expand his interests and
deepen his learning experiences by chatting informally with his instruc-
tors in the offices or on the campus. The faculty consists of well-trained
men and women devoted to teaching and academic advising in their
areas of specialization.
SMC STUDENTS
Approximately sixty percent of the students of SMC come from
the eight states comprising the Southern Union Conference of Seventh-
day Adventists. However, many additional states and eight to ten
overseas countries are also represented in the college community. Gen-
erally the student group is fairly equally divided between men and
women.
THIS IS SMC
It is significant to note that in recent years SMC freshmen stu-
dents scored above the national average on the Scholastic College Ability
Test. Even more noteworthy is the observation that over forty per
cent of SMC graduates are sufficiently motivated to take graduate or
professional training. In anticipation of advanced training, a number
of graduates have Qualified for scholarships and fellowships, including
awards from the National Science Foundation, the National Defense
Graduate Fellowship program, and the Woodrow Wilson Foundation.
Former SMC students are now serving in the ministerial, teach-
ing, medical, and other services of the Seventh-day Adventist Church
at home and abroad. Others are engaged in business pursuits, gov-
ernment service, research activities, private and institutional medical
services, and in the teaching professions on all levels.

STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
A college is not only classroom instruction but also a mode of asso-
ciation. The effectiveness of the college program is enhanced if stu-
dents choose to develop their particular interests and to meet their
needs through significant participation in the non-academic activities
provided. Advisers are available to give counsel and direction in plan-
ning the total college program. Students are encouraged to take ad-
vantage of the facilities and opportunities planned for their cultural,
social, and spiritual growth.
RESIDENCE HALL LIVING
Living in a college residence hall with its daily and inevitable
''give and take" prepares the student to meet the vicissitudes of life
with equanimity, teaches respect for the rights and opinions of others,
and affords a first hand experience in adjusting to a social group.
To assure students this beneficial experience, the College requires
those unmarried and not living with their parents in the vicinity to
reside in one of the residence halls.
DINING
For the promotion of student health and simultaneous cultural
development, SMC provides a complete cafeteria service, organized to
serve the student's schedule with utmost consideration. Service by the
cafeteria staff is available for the many student and faculty social func-
tions of the school year.
The modern decor of the spacious dining hall makes it an inviting
center of the social and cultural life of the College. An auxiliary dining
room is available for meetings of various student or faculty organizations.
HEALTH SERVICE
The Health Service is administered by the Director of Health
Service in cooperation with the College Physician. Regular office hours
are maintained by the service director. The College Physician is on call
at the Clinic which is located on the campus.
The room rental charge for residence hall students covers the
cost of routine services and non-prescription medications, infirmary
care, and health and accident insurance as provided under the College
group plan. In case of major illness, students may be referred to off-
campus hospital facilities. Students when accepted will be supplied with
a brochure in which complete information is given concerning the bene-
fits of the health and accident insurance group plan. The College is not
responsible for injuries sustained on or off the campus, but is prepared to
render first aid assistance as needed.
STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
It is required that all new students submit to a medical examina-
tion before coming to SMC. The medical examination form sent out
with the acceptance letter must be used by the examining physician
and returned to the College.
GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING SERVICE
During registration each student is assigned a curriculum adviser
to assist in program planning. Throughout the school year the curricu-
lum adviser will be available for advice and guidance on academic
questions.
Although curriculum advisers may be consulted on questions
and problems other than academic ones, students are invited to seek
counsel from any member of the faculty. Personal problems will be
given thoughtful consideration. Members of the faculty deem it a privi-
lege to discuss with the student great principles, concepts, and ideas in
an atmosphere of informality and friendliness. Students are urged
to become personally acquainted with as many members of the fac-
ulty as possible.
Students with personal problems who wish assistance from a pro-
fessional counselor should consult the Dean of Students or Director of
Counseling Services. Personnel trained in psychology and counseling are
available to those with serious social and personal problems.
The testing service works in close cooperation with the counsel-
ing service in providing guidance information to both students and
counselors^ Students are urged to take advantage of the testing serv-
ice as a means of obtaining information useful in choosing a profession
or occupation.
ORIENTATION PROGRAM
SMC has a personal interest in the success of the student de-
siring a college education. There is much that the student must do
for himself in getting acquainted with the academic, social, and re-
ligious life of the College by perusing this bulletin and the social
policy handbook SMC and You. Instruction and counsel is given
which will help the student better understand the college program
and what is expected of him as a citizen of the college community.
Orientation for new students is held prior to the opening week of
the fall term. It includes examinations and instruction helpful in
course planning. The student is introduced to the facilities, purposes,
and functions of the college. Social occasions are also provided when
students may meet faculty* members and fellow students. All new
and transfer students are required to attend the orientation program.
STUDENT EMPLOYMENT SERVICE
The College operates a variety of auxiliary and vocational serv
ices and enterprises where students may obtain part-time employment
STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
to defray a portion of their school expenses. Opportunities to engage
in productive and useful labor can help to develop character traits of
industry, dependability, initiative and thrift. Students may also take
advantage of these employment opportunities to acquire vocational
skills by contacting The Director of Student Finance.
Students who accept employment assignments are expected to meet
all work appointments with punctuality. To be absent from work ap-
pointments without cause or previous arrangement, or notification of ill-
ness is sufficient reason for disciplinary action or discharge. Students
accepting employment by the College are required to maintain their work
schedule during the entire semester including examination week.
Residence hall students may not secure off-campus employment
without permission of the Dean of Students.
SENIOR PLACEMENT SERVICE
One of the personnel services of the College is that of assisting
graduates in securing appointments for service. The Placement Serv-
ice distributes information concerning each senior student to a wide
list of prospective employers. The Dean of Students serves as the liaison
officer in bringing graduate and employer together.
STUDENT ASSOCIATION
Every student at SMC who is taking 8 or more semester hours
of classwork is a member of the Student Association, with voting
privileges in the election of officers. Opportunities for leadership
development and for cooperation in achieving the objectives of SMC are
afforded by the Association. The Association assists the College ad-
ministration and faculty in the implementation of policies and assumes
responsibility in giving direction to campus activities entrusted to it.
The Association's activities are coordinated and communicated
through the Student Senate and Cabinet and their several committees.
The activities include the publishing of the biweekly newspaper, Southern
Accent; the yearbook, Southern Memories; the chapel announcement
sheet, Campus Accent; and the student-faculty directory.
The activities and responsibilities of officers and the detailed or-
ganization of the Student Association are outlined in the Student Asso-
ciation Constitution and By-laws.
CAMPUS ORGANIZATIONS
Aside from the Student Association and its committees, more
than thirty campus organizations provide opportunity for leadership
training. They may be classified under four divisions: church-relateH
organizations, social clubs, professional clubs, and special interest or
hooby clubs.
10
STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
The church-related organizations are the Missionary Volunteer
Society, Ministerial Seminar, American Temperance Society, and the
Colporteur Club.
The professional clubs are organized by the instructional de-
partments of the College under the sponsorship of department heads.
The social clubs are organized according to place of residence.
These are the Married Couples' Forum; Upsilon Delta Phi, the men's
club; and Sigma Theta Chi, the women's club.
CONCERT-LECTURE SERIES
Each year students have the privilege of attending a concert-lecture
series featuring distinguished artists, lecturers, and film travelogues.
These programs are generally scheduled for Saturday or Sunday nights.
The cost of season tickets issued to students at the beginning of each year
is included in the advanced payment,
FINE ARTS SERIES
To cultivate an appreciation for that which is elevating and beau-
tiful in the fine arts, evening concerts by visiting musicians are
sponsored by the Fine Arts Department. Art exhibits by prominent
artists in the area are opened to the public after the programs,
presenting an opportunity to meet the artist. Season tickets are pro-
vided without charge to all students.
STANDARD OF CONDUCT
In harmony with the objectives of the College, high standards
of behavior are maintained to encourage the development of genuine
Christian character. Mature Christian students of sound spiritual and
social integrity delight in standards that elevate and ennoble. Admis-
sion to SMC is a privilege that requires the acceptance of and com-
pliance with published and announced regulations. Only those whose
principles and interests are in harmony with the ideals of the College
and who willingly subscribe to the social program as ordered are
welcomed.
A student who finds himself out of harmony with the social
policies of the College, who is uncooperative, and whose attitudes give
evidence of an unresponsive nature may be advised to withdraw
without specific charge. The use of tobacco or alcoholic beverages,
theatre attendance, card playing, dancing, profane or vulgar language,
hazing, and improper associations are not tolerated.
Each student is expected to acquaint himself with the standard
of conduct published in the student handbook SMC and You. A
copy may be obtained from the Dean of Student Affairs. Interim an-
nouncements of policies adopted by the faculty are of equal force
with those listed in official publications.
11
STUDENT LIFE AND SERVICES
CHAPEL AND WORSHIP SERVICES
In private parochial education it has been well known that elimina-
tion of residence halls convocation and all school convocations is the first
step toward the separation of the school from its sponsoring church. Con-
vocation exercises in the residence halls and for the combination student
body serve educational and religious purposes. They also provide an ele-
ment of unity which is one of the most desirable features of private
education such as found at Southern Missionary College.
The religious emphasis weeks and the weekend church services assist
the spiritual growth of the students comprising the college community.
Students are expected to attend these services regularly. Failure to do so
will jeopardize the student's current status and readmission privileges.
MARRIAGES
Early or hasty marriages are often the product of a lovesick
sentimentalism which blinds youth to the high claims of true love
as a principle rather than a feeling. True affection is neither unreason-
able nor blind.
Students wishing to be married during the school term must obtain
prior permission from the Dean of Students. Failure to do this will result
in a student's immediate dismissal from school. As defined here, the
school term consists of the period of time beginning with the start of the
Fall semester and extending until the following Spring Commencement.
Permission for marriage must also be obtained for students enrolled in
the Summer session.
12

mum of twelve semester hours in residence. A maximum of seventy-
two semester hours may be accepted from a junior college. Background
deficiencies revealed by transcripts and entrance examinations will be
given individual attention. Students transferring from non-accredited
14
ADMISSION TO SMC
istitutions of higher education are given conditional status until the level
f their academic performance in residence warrants promotion to regu-
ar status. Grades of less than "C" from such institutions will not be
ccepted toward meeting graduation requirements. A student who has
»een dismissed from another institution because of poor scholarship or
itizenship, or who is on probation from that institution, is not generally
ligible for admission until he can qualify for readmission to the institu-
ion from which he has been dismissed.
RANSFER FROM PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS AND DIPLOMA SCHOOL OF NURSING
Students transferring from professional schools and diploma schools
>f nursing may receive up to 60 hours of college credit or waiver by
alidation examinations covering previous courses equivalent to certain
equirements including electives as approved by the Academic Dean
n counsel with the departmental chairman. A student must achieve
it least a "C" on a validation examination. Validation tests may not be
epeated. The following rules of procedure apply:
1. Application in writing to the departmental chairman of the
major field.
2. Payment to the accounting office in advance of a special examin-
ation fee of $25 for each separate validation examination for
credit, or $5 for a validation examination for waiver. If a
student registers to audit a course satisfactorily taken previously
to prepare for a validation test, no special validation fee will be
charged if the test is the usual end of course examination.
ADMISSION BY EXAMINATION
Students who are 21 years of age or older and who are unable
o provide evidence of having completed the requirements for sec-
ondary school graduation are encouraged to seek admission if personal
[ualifications for success in college are in evidence. The results of
ollege entrance examinations as advised by the College and the edu-
ational background of the applicant will be considered necessary
riteria for admission.
AMISSION OF SPECIAL STUDENTS
Mature individuals who do not meet the above college admission
equirements and who do not wish to become degree candidates, or
therwise-qualified students who mav desire limited credit for trans-
er to another institution of higher learning, may register as special
tudents.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE FOR ADMISSION
^ Request application forms from the Office of Admissions and
Records.
^ Return the completed application budget sheet and medical form
to the Office of Admissions and Records with the application fee
15
ADMISSION TO SMC
of $5. This fee is $5 if the application is received at least six
weeks before the beginning of the semester. After that the fee
will be $10.
^ It is the student's responsibility to request his former school to
forward his transcript to the Office of Admissions in support of
his application. This will become the property of the college. NO
TRANSCRIPT WILL BE ACCEPTED DIRECTLY FROM AN
APPLICANT.
► To permit a more effective program of counseling for admis-
sion, applicants must submit scores from the American College
Testing Program (ACT). Test scores are valuable in deter-
mining ability to pursue a college program, and in discovering
areas in which the student may be deficient.
^ Upon receipt of the application, transcripts of credits, recom-
mendations and test scores, the Admissions Committee will
notify the applicant of the action taken.
WHEN TO APPLY OR REAPPLY
New students are urged to submit applications not later than the
last term of the senior year of high school. Applications submitted
at the beginning of the senior year will sometimes enable the College
to suggest ways of strengthening the student's preparation. Because
of the difficulty sometimes encountered during the summer months
in obtaining necessary transcripts, test scores, and recommendations,
more time will be necessary for processing late applications.
Students in residence may submit re-applications without charge
until April 30. Thereafter the regular application fee of $5 will be
required until July 31, after which the fee becomes $10.

PROGRAMS OF STUDY
DEGREES AND CURRICULA
As a Christian liberal arts college, SMC intends that God be
>laced at the center of all learning experience. Through classroom
nstruction, the spiritual emphasis on college life, and the organized social Pri
)rogram for the student, an effort is made to assist students in arriving of
it a realistic and a satisfying perspective of the universe.
A Christian liberal education at SMC is primarily concerned with .
:haracter and intelligence, neither of which it can create. It attempts to '
provide the atmosphere and conditions under which both can be discov-
ered and nurtured to maturity. In essence, it seeks to:
y Engender a considered sense of judgment and values involving
commitments to moral positions based on Christian philosophy,
religion and experience.
^ Liberate the individual human mind as essential to the dis- .
covery and acquisition of truth.
^ Reveal that education is both discipline and delight, and that I
meaningful, lasting benefits flow from men and women who |
have become involved in the pleasures of learning.
y Provide knowledge of classified facts pertaining to man's re-
lationship to his physical and social universe.
^ Develop basic abilities and skills that are widely transferable
and needed in nearly all of man's pursuits. To understand
people, to be able to organize and communicate effectively, and
to possess a will to follow through with the assigned task at
hand are all essential tools for successful living.
PLANNING A COURSE OF STUDY
When planning for college, the student should consider in detail
\he course of study desired as a preparation for a specific profession
^r occupation. It is not always necessary to have made firm decisions
about the choice of one's life work before entering college. Some students
prefer to take a general program of education during the freshman
rear while exploring several fields of knowledge. This approach need
not result in loss of credits if carefully planned.
Students planning to teach should consult the Department of Educa-
tion so as to include courses in teacher education as a part of their pro-
gram of study in order to qualify for denominational and state
:ertification.
The programs of study and the over-all graduation requirements
outlined in this bulletin should be seriously considered by students
n advance of registration. After careful study of the desired program
;he student should then consult his faculty adviser. If convenient, fresh -
nan students may wish to consult faculty advisers during the summer
nonths prior to the beginning of the fall term.
The College offers programs of study leading to the Bachelor of
\rts, Bachelor of Science, and Bachelor of Music Degrees. Although
SMC is essentially a liberal arts college, pre -professional and terminal
;urricula are offered for students planning to enter professional schools
17
PROGRAMS OF STUDY
and for those who, because of limited resources and qualifications, may
wish to pursue a two-year terminal program of a technical nature.
These curricula are described following the degree programs.
GENERAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS
The general degree requirements for a baccalaureate degree are:
^ Satisfactory make-up of deficiencies revealed by high school
transcript and entrance examinations.
^ A minimum of 128 semester hours including 40 hours of upper
biennium credits, with a resident and cumulative grade point
average of 2.00 (C) or above.
^ Completion of a major and minor (two majors accepted), with a
cumulative grade point average of 2.25 in the majors, the general
education requirements, and electives to satisfy the total credit
requirements for graduation. Courses completed with grades
lower than a "C" may not be applied on a major or minor. No
course may fulfill both major and minor requirements of the
same student.
► Thirty semester hours of credit must be completed in residence
immediately preceding conferment of the degree. Sixteen of the
thirty hours must be in the upper biennium with at least eight
hours in the major and three in the minor.
y Completion of the Graduate Record Examinations Area, Field and
Aptitude tests.
GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
The well-educated individual must possess an understanding of
the broad outlines of human knowledge as well as of his chosen field of
specialization. It is the purpose of general education to provide the
student with a capability for critical thinking and a knowledge of his
cultural heritage. Thus all degree candidates are required to select
certain general education courses as a part of the total educational
program. It is expected that every student will take courses in Religion
and English during the freshman year. While it is not expected that stu-
dents complete all the general education requirements during the fresh-
man and sophomore years, a total of 45 hours with a grade point average
of at least 2.00 must be completed before registering for upper biennium
courses, with six hours in each of the following areas: college composi-
tion, science and mathematics, social science, religion, and two hours of
physical education, and Humanities 50. All bachelor of science pro-
grams have the same general education requirements as the bachelor of
arts program with the exception of the modern language. If a department
requires intermediate language for a bachelor of science degree, this six-
hour requirement may be substituted for three hours in social science and
three hours in language arts excluding Freshman English.
Nursing students will take two hours of physical activity courses

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
REGISTRATION
Students are expected to register during the scheduled registra-
tion periods designated in the school calendar. The registration pro-
cess is complete only after all procedures have been met and regis- Ac
tration forms are returned to the Office of Records. Freshmen and j
transfer students are required to participate in the Orientation Week
activities.
Late Registration. Permission to register late must be obtained
from the Academic Dean. Students failing to register during the l
scheduled registration periods will be assessed a late registration fee |j
of $10.00 and $2.00 for each additional day. The course load of a late
registrant will be reduced by one to two semester hours of each expired \
week of instruction. No student should expect to register after two
weeks of the semester have elapsed.
Changes in Registration. To avoid changes in registration the
student should carefully consider the program of courses necessary
to meet his objectives. To avoid subsequent adjustments, a balance
must be maintained between the course load, work program, and j
extra-curricular activities.
If expedient, changes in the student's program may be made s
during the first week of instruction by the Director of Records
with the approval of the course instructor. Subsequent changes must
also have the approval of the Academic Dean. To effect a change in c
courses, the student must obtain the appropriate change of registration t
voucher at the Office of Records. After having the proposed change *
of program approved, the student must return the form to the Office t
of Records, Course changes and complete withdrawals from the school
become effective on the date the voucher is filed at the Office of Rec- ^
ords. A fee of $5.00 will be assessed for each change in the course *
program following the first week of instruction. >
A student may not change from one course section to another 3
without the approval of the instructor and the Director of Records.
A student may withdraw from a course up to the fourth week
of a semester with a grade of "WP." From the fourth week to the
twelfth week a grade of "WP" or "WF" will be recorded. There-
after a grade of "F" will be recorded unless the withdrawal is due
to unavoidable circumstances, or is recommended because of citizenship
problems in which case a grade of "WP" or "WF" will be applied, de-
pending upon the student's grade at the time of withdrawal.
Auditing Courses. A student may register on an audit basis with the
approval of the department in courses for which he is qualified. Class at-
tendance is expected but examinations and reports may be omitted. With
the approval of the instructor a student may change a course registration
for audit to credit, or for credit to audit, during the first week of in s true -

The grade "S" may be given in group organizations and prob-
lem courses but may not be used as a final grade. A student may
receive an "Incomplete" because of illness or other unavoidable delav.
An incomplete grade must be removed by the end of the first six weeks
of the following semester. A student who believes he is eligible for an
incomplete must secure from the Office of Admissions and Records the
proper form on which he may file application with the Academic Dean
to receive an incomplete.
A course in which the student received a grade of k6 D" or "F"
may be repeated before he takes a more advanced course in the same
field. A course may be repeated for credit in residence only. In comput-
ing the grajde point average, both the original grade and the grade re-
ceived in the repeated course will be included.
The grade point average may be calculated by dividing the total
number of grade points earned by the course load.
ACADEMIC PROBATION
When for any reason a student's scholarship falls below a "C" (2.00)
average, he may be required to adjust his program.
A student is automatically placed on academic probation or aca-
demically dismissed when his cumulative grade point average fails to
reach the following accumulated levels:
Hours Dismissal Level Probation Level
1-23

Beginning freshmen will be allowed to attempt 23 semester hours
over a period of two semesters before being subject to dismissal. Candi-
dates for the Associate of Science degree must have a grade point average
of at least 1 .95 before being accepted for their final year.
25
ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Students on probation may not hold office in any student organiza-
tion and may not participate in any cocurricular organization which
represents the college on or off campus.
A student academically dismissed may not be readmitted until two
sessions have elapsed. Eligibility for readmission shall include successful
college-level work taken in another institution or other evidence of
maturity and motivation.
Transfer students should have a grade point average of at least 2.00
in order to be eligible for admission to Southern Missionary College.
Any person coming to the senior year with a grade point average of
less than 2.25 in the major will be placed on academic probation.
CLASS AND CHAPEL ATTENDANCE
Class Attendance, Attendance at class and laboratory appoint-
ments is required. A student's schedule is considered a contract and
constitutes a series of obligated appointments.
1. Absences: Absences are counted from the first scheduled
meeting of the classes and are considered as either an excused or
an unexcused absence. Excused absences are recognized as
absences incurred because of illness, authorized school trips, or
emergencies beyond the student's control.
To have an absence recorded as an excused absence the
student must, upon returning to class, show the instructor an
absence excuse blank signed by the proper authority as listed
below. He must do so within the first two class periods after he
returns to class.
a. Illness: Dormitory students excused by health service. Non-
dormitory students by college or family physician or dean of
students. Students will not be excused from classes for reasons
of illness unless they have been in touch with the health serv-
ice prior to missing the classes.
b. Authorized school trips: The sponsor of the group should
send a list of those who attended any such trip to the academic
dean the day following the trip. He will make this list
available to all teachers within 24 hours. If a certain person's
name is not on the list, the instructor may record the absence
as unexcused.
c. All other excusable absences should be cleared through the
academic dean.
If the number of unexcused absences in any class exceeds
the number of hours credit in the class, it will be cause upon
the recommendation of the instructor, with the approval of the
academic dean, for dismissal from the class. A grade of W or
WF will be recorded. An instructor may consider 4 tardinesses
as one absence.
2. Make-up work: A student may expect to make up class work
only if the absence is excused. All make-up work involving
26
ACADEMIC INFORMATION
examinations and other class assignments must be completed
within one week after the student returns to class unless an
extension of time is arranged with the instructor. A teacher
may have the option, if it is agreeable with the individual student,
to give an average grade on a make-up quiz or use it as one of the
quizzes to be thrown out if that practice is followed. However,
if the student prefers to be given a make-up quiz, it is his pre-
rogative and the instructor shall be obliged to do so.
Chapel Attendance. The chaoel service is provided for the spirit-
ual and cultural benefit of the college family, to promote the interests
of SMC, and to develop and conserve a spirit of campus unity. In
essence the chapel attendance policy is the same as for class attend-
ance in that no absences are permitted except for illness, authorized
school trips, or emergency. Excuses must be presented at the Dean of
Students office within 48 hours after the absence. It is the responsibility
of each student to keep check of his chapel absences. Upon receiving
the fourth unexcused absence, the student will receive a letter of advice,
and upon receiving the fifth, a letter of warning. Additional unexcused
absences will result in suspension from all classes pending review by the
Student Affairs Committee. Continued absences may disqualify the
student as a citizen on this campus. A student leaving chapel after record
is taken will be considered absent. Absences immediately preceding or
following vacations, school picnics, field days or from the first chapel
appointment of the second semester carry a double penalty. Three tardi-
nesses are equivalent to an absence.
A satisfactory chapel attendance record is required for readmis-
sion to SMC.
SPECIAL EXAMINATIONS
Upon recommendation of the instructor and the approval of the
Academic Policies Committee, a student may obtain a waiver of cur-
ricular requirements by successfully completing comprehensive ex-
aminations — written, oral, manipulative or otherwise, as determined
by the instructor. Any request for waiver examinations is to be made
at the regular registration period and the examination must be taken
at a date within three weeks of the request being granted. A fee of
$5.00 is assessed.
COLLEGE CREDIT BY EXAMINATION
In recognition of special needs, college credit by examination is
permitted. The following rules of procedure apply:
^ Application in writing to the Academic Dean with the ap^
proval of the major professor and department chairman at
least four weeks in advance of the proposed examination date.
y Payment to the accounting office of a special examination fee
of $25.00.
^ Sitting for the comprehensive examinations, written, oral, ma-
nipulative or otherwise as determined by the instructor in col-
laboration with the department chairman. The examination must
27
ACADEMIC INFORMATION
be taken during the semester in which approval is granted. Ex-
aminations for credit or for waiver may be taken only once.
y A grade of "B" must be achieved by the student to have course
credits recorded as college credit.
^ Any request for credit examinations is to be made at the regular
registration period and the examination must be taken at a date
within three weeks of the request being granted.
CORRESPONDENCE AND EXTENSION COURSES
A maximum of twelve semester hours of correspondence or ex-
tension credit may apply toward a baccalaureate degree program and
eight hours toward a two-year terminal curriculum.
The Home Study Institute of Washington, D.C., is the officially
recognized correspondence school of Southern Missionary College. The
college recommends the Home Study Institute for those students needing
correspondence credit and accepts all such credits when the study pro-
gram is approved by the academic dean prior to enrollment.
A student will be permitted to carry correspondence or extension
work while in residence only if the required course is unobtainable at
the College. All correspondence work must be completed one full sem-
ester prior to graduation. Correspondence courses, whether taken while
in residence or during the summer, must be approved in advance by the
Academic Dean.
Correspondence work may not apply on the upper " biennium
requirements of the major or minor. A minimum grade of "B" must
be earned to apply on the lower biennium requirements for a major.
Correspondence credit with a "D" grade is unacceptable and a course
in which the student earned a grade of "D" or "F" while in residence
may not be repeated by correspondence. No correspondence credit will
be entered on the student's record until he has earned a minimum of
twelve hours in residence with an average of at least "C". To apply
toward the requirements of a baccalaureate degree, correspondence work
must be completed two sessions prior to graduation. A session is defined
as a complete eight-week summer session or a semester. This means that
any student wishing to graduate in May will not be allowed to place any
correspondence work on his transcript after his registration in the fall.
If a student graduates at the August commencement, he will not be
allowed to place correspondence work on his transcript after registration
of the spring semester preceding the summer in which he graduates.
A senior may take correspondence work during his senior year but this
correspondence work will not apply toward graduation.
HONORS
The following honors program has been devised in recognition
of quality scholarship and a commitment to learning.
Dean's List. Students who carry a minimum of twelve semester
hours and attain a grade point average of 3.50 or above for two con-
secutive semesters in residence are listed on the official Dean's List. At

ered 100 to 149 are upper biennium courses open primarily to juniors;
nd 150 to 199 are open primarily to seniors.
Course numbers that stand alone (e.g., 56) represent courses of
ne semester which are units in and of themselves.
Course numbers separated by a comma (e.g., 41, 42) represent
nits in and of themselves either one of which may be counted for
raduation without reference to sequence.
Course numbers separated by a colon (e.g., 11:12) are year
3urses in which credit for the first course is a prerequisite to the
^cond; however, credit may be given for the first semester when
iken alone.

LTERNATING COURSES
Throughout the following section, courses which are not offered
uring the school year 1970-71 will be starred to the left of the course
umber (e.g*, *57, 58). This arrangement of offering courses in al-
ginate years (generally on the upper biennium level) makes possible
le enrichment of curricula without a proportional increase of in-
fractional expense.

SOUTHERN MISSIONARY COLLEGE
Student Financial Information
1971-72
Planning for college requires careful consideration of a number of
new responsibilities. Financial planning is not the least of these. A
college education in a Christian school is a valuable experience. Educa-
tion costs in general are increasing each year and Southern Missionary
College has not been exempt from these rising costs although costs are still
below the national average for private colleges.
SMC has made a large investment in vocational and auxiliary enter-
prises making it possible for those students who have limited financial
assistance to work and defray a substantial portion of their school
expenses.
STUDENT FINANCIAL BUDGET AND CAMPUS EMPLOYMENT
Each applicant must submit before registration time a financial
budget on the form provided with his application to Southern Missionary
College.
When a student is accepted under an approved budget which
requires on-campus labor, the Director of Student Finance w^ll make
a reasonable effort to assist that student in finding work to the extent
called for in the student's budget. The student is not to regard this
acceptance as a guarantee that he shall be provided with work. It is
the student's responsibility to make a personal effort to secure employ-
ment, to prove that he can render valuable service on the job, and to
arrange a class schedule that is compatible with a reasonable work
program.
Community students are considered on a cash basis, and it shall
be understood that students living in residence halls will be given
employment preference in the assignment of work opportunities in the
auxiliary and vocational enterprises operated by the College.
ADVANCE PAYMENT
All students are required to make an advance payment at or
before registration. The advance payment for all students registering
for eight or more semester hours is $300. Those students who register
for less than eight semester hours may pay the total tuition charge in
advance in lieu of the advance payment.
The advance payment less any housing charge (see Housing
Deposit) is credited to the student's account at the close of the school
year or under certain conditions upon his withdrawal from school.
Married Couples as Students — When a married couple enrolls for
a combined total of seventeen hours or less of school work, they shall be
charged as one person in making the advance payment.
102
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
HOUSING DEPOSIT
Before a housing or room reservation may be made, $50 of the
advance payment must be paid as a housing deposit. Tentative reserva-
tions may be made without a deposit before July 15; however, the deposit
must be made by that date in order to hold the reservation. After July 1 5
requests for reservations must be accompanied by the $50 payment.
If notice of nonattendance is given to the College by August 1.
one-half of the housing deposit is refundable. After August 1 no refund of
the payment will be made, except as provided for in the following
paragraph.
Students who register at the college and remain in residence a mini-
mum of sixty days are eligible for deposit refunds which will be credited
to their final statements. Costs of repairing damages to dormitory rooms
and college apartments and of cleaning apartments and rooms that are
not left in good condition will be charged to the students and deducted
from the housing deposits.
TUITION
The schedule of tuition and general fee charges are as follows:
Semester Semester Both Sem.
Hours Tuition* Total**
1-7 $ 60 per hour
8-11 670 $1340
12-16 780 1560

covered by a general fee, including Student Association membership fee of $23.00
for the year for all those taking 8 or more semester hours of classwork.
* Audit: Tuition for audited courses will be charged at the same rate as courses
taken for credit.
* See Tuition Refunds
** It is assumed that the students will pursue course loads equal to their financial and
scholastic ability. Those residing in the residence halls or as married students
living in other housing are required to take a course load of at least eight semester
hours, which i$ one half of a full-course program. The student should observe that
the most economical tuition rates are applied to full-course loads.
Tuition for the first semester is divided equally (*4 each) between
the months of September, October, November, and December. Tuition
for the second semester is divided equally (^ each) between the months
of January, February, March and April.
MUSIC TUITION
The charge for private music instruction is $55.00 per semester for
a minimum of 14 one-half hour lessons. In addition to private instruction
103
1
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
in voice, classes of three or more students may be arranged at a cost per
student of $40 per semester. All persons who wish to take music must
enroll for it at the Admissions Office even if they are not taking it for
credit or if music is all they are taking. There is a $2 registration fee for
those who are taking music only.
Students are expected to enroll for private lessons or class instruc-
tion in an instrument or voice by the semester. Refunds will be allowed
only when the instructor is not available for lessons. Music majors will
not be charged for private music instruction in their applied major
during their last two years in residence but will be charged tuition at
the regular rate.
TUITION REFUNDS
A student may drop all classes within one week after registration
with a $25 tuition charge. Subsequent to that time students who drop
all classes will be charged tuition on a prorated basis based on an 18-
week period.
During the first week following registration, students may make
necessary changes in their class programs without charge. After this a
fee of $5 will be assessed for each change in the course program. After
three weeks following registration there will be no reduction in tuition
charges for classes dropped for the remainder of the semester.
STATEMENTS AND METHOD OF BILLING
Statements will be issued about the 5th day of each calendar month
covering transactions through the end of the preceding month. The bal-
ance due the college is to be paid by the 25th of the month for discount
privileges. Should a student's account be unpaid by the 15th of the
succeeding month his registration may be cancelled until such time
as the balance is paid or satisfactory arrangements are made.
EXAMPLE OF CREDIT POLICY
Period covered by statement October 1-31
Approximate date of billing November 5
Discount period ends November 25
Class attendance severed if still unpaid December 15
The above schedule of payment must be maintained since the
College budget is based upon the 100 percent collection of student
charges within the thirty-day period following date of billing. A
student may not take semester examinations, register for a new se-
mester, or participate as a senior in commencement exercises unless
his account is current according to the preceding regulations (see
example of credit policy). No transcript will be issued for a student
whose account is not paid in full.
Discounts — A cash discount on tuition is allowed when payment
is made on or before the 25th of the month for the previous month's
charge. The amount of the discount varies with the number of un-
married children enrolled from the same family in Southern Missionary
College. The following rates apply.
104
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Number of Dependents Amount of Discount
1 2 per cent
2 5 per cent

A college student, to qualify for family discount, must be enrolled for
a minimum of 8 semester hours. Accounts of all students, who are
counted for a family discount and for which the same parent is respon-
sible, must be paid before discounts above 2% are allowed on any of the
family accounts. The 2% discount is allowed on all student accounts
paid in full by the 25th of the following month.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Residence halls — Single students not living with parents are re-
quired to reside in one of the college residence halls. These accommoda-
tions are rented for the school year and charged to the student in eight
o-]ual payments September through April. The yearly room charges are
as follows:
Thatcher Hall $378
Talge Hall 378
Jones Hall 344
Orlando Nursing Dormitory 362
Rates include flat laundry service at the College laundry. Laundry in
excess of flat work will be charged at regular published laundry prices.
The room charges listed above include infirmary care and basic
services provided by the Director of Health Service at the Health
Service Center.
The room charge is based on two students occupying a room. A
student may, upon application to the residence hall dean, be granted the
privilege of rooming alone when sufficient rooms are available. The
surcharge for this arrangement is $15 monthly. No refund is made
for absence from the campus either for regular vacation periods or for
other reasons. If a student moves out of the residence hall during the
school year, adjustment of room rent is made based on the number of
days the room was occupied by the student or his belongings.
Housing for Married Students — The College provides a number of
apartments and mobile homes for married students. The apartments
range in size from two to four rooms and most are unfurnished. Rents
range from $52.50 to $105 per month.
The mobile homes are two and three bedrooms in size and are
furnished. Rents range from $85 to $105 per month.
There are fifty or more privately owned apartments in the Col-
legedale community. These also are available to students. Informa-
tion may be obtained from the Director of Student Finance upon re-
quest.
FOOD SERVICE
The cafeteria plan of boarding is used which allows the student
the privilege of choosing his food and paying only for what he selects.
Board charges for students vary greatly. The average monthly charge
in the cafeteria is approximately $55.00 for men and $40.00 for women.
Individual charges have exceeded these averages substantially. The Col-
lege applies no minimum monthly charge, but all students are urged to
eat healthfully by avoiding between-meal snacks and by eating at the
cafeteria where balanced meals are available.
LAUNDRY AND DRY CLEANING SERVICE
Dormitory room rates on the Collegedale campus include laundry
flat work. Dry cleaning and laundry in excess of flat work will be
charged at regular published laundry prices.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ORLANDO CAMPUS EXPENSES— DIVISION OF NURSING
The Division of Nursing offers part of its program on the College-
dale Campus and part on the Orlando, Florida, Campus. Charges for
tuition and other expenses follow the same schedule as for college work
on the Collegedale campus.
Approximately $60.00 will be needed for uniforms and $30.00 for
cape if cape is desired. The uniforms will be purchased the first se-
mester of the sophomore year by those enrolled in the Baccalaureate
program and in the first semester of the freshman year by those in the
Associate in Sciences program. The cost of the uniforms only may be
charged to the student's account if desired.
STUDENT TITHING
SMC encourages the payment of tithe and church expense by its
student workers. In order to facilitate this practice, arrangements
may be made by the student (except for those employed at the McKee
Baking Co. and in the Federal Work-Study Program) to have ten percent
of his school earnings charged to his account as tithe and two percent for
church expense. These funds are then transferred by the College to the
treasurer of the Collegedale Seventh-day Adventist Church. Tithe on
earnings at the McKee Baking Company and from the Federal Work-
Study Program must be withdrawn by the student at the College Student
Finance Office and paid in cash.
BANKING AND CASH WITHDRAWALS
The accounting office operates a deposit banking service for the
convenience of the student. Financial sponsors should provide students
with sufficient funds through the banking service to cover the cost of
personal items of an incidental nature and travel expenses off campus
including vacation periods. Withdrawals may be made by the student
in person only as long as there is a credit balance. These deposit ac-
counts are entirely separate from the student's school expense account.
Withdrawals from regular expense accounts are discouraged and per-
mitted only under special arrangement with the Director of Student
Finance and with the permission of the financial sponsor.
Each student should bring approximately $75 for books and supplies
at the beginning of each semester, if he desires to pay cash for these items.
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Students applying for work, loans or scholarships should contact the
Director of Student Finance, P. O. Box 370, Collegedale, Tennessee
37315.
STUDENT LABOR REGULATIONS
Believing in the inspired words that "systematic labor should con-
stitute a part of the education of youth," (K G. White) SMC has
made provision that every student enrolled may have the privilege of
organizing his educational program on the "work- study" plan. "Jesus
the carpenter, and Paul the tent-maker, . . . with the toil of the crafts-
107
: INANCIAL INFORMATION
nan linked the highest ministry, human and divine" (E. G. White),
rhe College not only provides a work-study program, but strongly
■ecommends it to each student enrolled.
In order to provide work opportunities to students, industries are
iperated by the College. The industries must serve their customers daily,
lecessitating a uniform working force. To continue these industries in
>peration, students assigned thereto must continue their work schedules
o the end of the term. (Preparation for tests should be a day-by-day
natter.) Any student who drops his work schedule without making
>roper arrangements will be suspended from class attendance until
vroper arrangements are made with the Director of Student Finance.
t should be understood that once a student is assigned to work in a given
lepartment, he is expected to remain there for the entire school year
ixcept in cases where changes are recommended by the school nurse or
ire made by the College.
Should a student find it necessary to be absent from work, he
nust make prior arrangements with his work superintendent. In
ase of illness, he will inform the Health Service.
The Office of Student Finance for the college strives to place
tudents on jobs to the best of its ability. For various reasons the
:ollege cannot guarantee work to a student even though his application
nay have been accepted on a plan calling for an approximate number
>f hours of work per week. Some students choose class schedules with
lasses so scattered that a reasonable work program is impossible,
some are physically or emotionally unable to work, others are erratic
it meeting work assignments. It is the responsibility of the student
o render acceptable service to his employer in order to maintain a
3b. The department superintendent reserves the right to dismiss the
tudent if his service is unsatisfactory. The student pay rate is $1.60 per

granted. Foreign students with student visas are not allowed to work
more than 20 hours a week. Wives may work only if they have student
visas of their own or have immigrant visas.
FINANCIAL AID
Southern Missionary College provides financial aid for students
through loans, scholarships and employment. A single application for
financial aid, filed with the College will be used for most of the aid
programs.
The financial aid program is administered in conjunction with the
nationally-established policy and philosophy which is that the parents
are the primary and responsible source for helping a student to meet his
educational costs. Any financial aid offered to students will be for filling
the gap between the student's own resources (parental contribution, sum-
mer earnings, savings, etc.) and the total cost of attending Southern
Missionary College. The amount of parental contribution will be based
on the family's financial strength: net income, number of dependents,
allowable expenses and indebtedness, and assets. The Family Financial
Need Analysis from the American College Testing Program is used in
determining a student's eligibility for financial aid.
VETERANS
Southern Missionary College is approved by the Veterans Adminis-
tration as an accredited training institution. Those who qualify for
educational benefits should contact the nearest Veterans Administration
office. A certificate of eligibility must be presented before registration is
completed. The Veterans Administration counseling centers will pro-
vide complete information concerning policies and procedures.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
scholarship, and financial need. The interest rate of three per cent
becomes effective one year after the borrower is no longer a student at
the College, and the principal with interest is due and payable within
three years.

to needy students by physicians interested in assisting young people in
gaining a college education. Three percent interest becomes effective

ship potential, and good scholarship. Loans are usually limited to $100
per student.
1969 Alumni Loan Fund — A revolving fund is maintained by the
alumni of 1969. Allocations are made to students in the junior or senior

good scholarship. Loans of up to $300 for a semester are available. The
interest rate of three percent becomes effective when the borrower severs
students relationship with the College, and the principal with interest is
due and payable within one year thereafter.
Educational Fund — Many young people are deprived of the privi-
lege of attending college because of a lack of necessary means.* To aid
these, an earnest effort has been made to obtain donations for the es-
tablishment of an educational fund, from which students worthy of help
may borrow money for a reasonable length of time. Faithfulness in
refunding these loans will make it possible for the same money to assist
other students in school. There have been some gifts, and these have
been used to help several young men and women complete their work
in this College. But the needs of worthy students have been greater
than the funds on hand; consequently, it has been impossible in many
instances to render the needed assistance. It has therefore been de-
cided to direct the attention of patrons and friends of the school to
these facts and to invite them to give such means as they may desire
to devote to this purpose. The College will be glad to correspond with
any who think favorably of this plan, and will continue to use the gifts
so that the best results may be obtained.
United Student Aid Funds — Through this program loans are made
at student's "hometown" bank and are guaranteed by United Student
Aid Funds, Inc. Interest begins to accrue when the loan is made but no
payment is made until course is completed. These loans are available
with interest benefits from the Federal Government similar to the
Guaranteed Loan Programs. In order that students may borrow through
this program, Southern Missionary College is required to deposit $1,000
for each $12,500 in loans made available. Applications are obtained at
the college. For more information, write to Director of Student Finance.
Deferred Payment of Education Costs — For students and parents
112
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
desiring to pay education expenses in 12 or 15 monthly installments,
instead of nine months, a deferred payment program is available through
College Aid Plan, Inc., and also through Tuition Plan, Inc. Repayment of
funds for four years of college may be made over a period of 48 to 72
months. A typical loan of $1,000 for a school year would require 12
monthly payments of approximately $89.00.
The deferred payment plans may include insurance on the life of
the student parent, disability insurance on the parent, plus trust adminis-
tration in the event of the parents' death or disability. Agreements may
